Magnets

When magnets are placed the right way

They connect

When they're placed the wrong way

They use everything in their power to stay away

From each other

They resist

With a force

That I do not know the name of

But I admire

It takes strength to resist

Especially when its expected

Of you to obey

Sometimes the magnets get to escape from each others grasp

And sometimes one magnet

Is stronger than the other

And they become bound together

Whether they want to

Or not

But what if

Dozens of magnets

Resisted

Against the one

And used the force

That I don't know the name of

Because dozens

Are stronger than one

    There was this book

    That I used to read

    When I was younger

    Every time a women makes 87 cents

    For every time a woman gets spoken down on

    A man is the speaker

    For every time a woman gets called weak

    A man is weaker

    Head towards the sky

    Eyes open

    Hearts open

    Looking for a shooting star

    A spark of equality

    A spark of freedom

    Eyes search the sky

    Spend hours searching

    Looking

    Hoping

    Wishing to wish
